The event is created, as are all good meals, thru incorporating and blending the finest ingredients. We offer all food entrees (seafood, meat and vegetarian) prepared fresh onsite using indigenous and sustainable ocean resources from Florida’s coastal waters. Foods will be accompanied by a delicious assortment of side dishes, desserts and both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.

While enjoying your meal and drinks, be serenaded by the captivating sounds of live musical performances on stage by some of Florida’s and the region’s top musical talents. Music will be from such genres and R&B, jazz, rock, reggae and Caribbean sounds. The final ‘seasoning’ will be a walk through a marketplace of arts and crafts, gourmet food items and specialty products.

While at the event, the Humane Society will have their "Big Mac" mobile adoption center onsite. Please take a few moments to stop by and say “hi” to the dedicated staff and meet their extended family of friends awaiting adoption. Find a new life companion and lend support to a wonderful and compassionate organization.
